Last week Patrick and Nick were at the World Wide Web conference in Madrid where they presented their work on BBC Music at the Developers track. The talk was entitled "Using the Web as our Content Management System on the BBC Music Beta".

"In this paper, we describe the BBC Music Beta, providing a comprehensive guide to music content across the BBC. We publish a persistent web identifier for each resource in our music domain, which serves as an aggregation point for all information about it. We describe a promising approach in building web sites, by re-using structured data available elsewhere on the Web --- the Web becomes our Content Management System. We therefore ensure that the BBC Music Beta is a truly Semantic Web site, re-using data from a variety of places and publishing its data in a variety of formats."

The paper and slides are available for download here.

    'music' here seems a subset of music leaving out a fairly large chunk of the total category. BBC Online seems always to use 'music' as a sort of brand to keep out the music .....lest it offend whom?
